Joel Golby Duvet Days

Joel Golby overcomes his phobia of sharing his bedding and reluctantly lets Abby Hollick onto his bed to talk about grief, gaming and his relationship with alcohol.
The Vice writer explains how it felt to see his essay on becoming an orphan go viral, and how it led to some strange conversations with friends who hadn’t known.
He chats about his mum’s use of lurid bright colour on the walls of his childhood home, growing up in the midlands and how his dad’s alcoholism affected him.
Plus he spills the beans on what it’s like to meet a sex robot, and some of his slightly weird worries (hint: dogs and his genitals are involved.)
